Song Lyrics

I'm taking it back I'm making a pact
I will make you indispensable
I spoke to myself, oh I might as well
And let you just be made sensible
Tell me your thoughts so I can
Love you in spite of them
But now I'm happy if I
Never lose sight of them

[Chorus:]
I'll take it back - I never said it did
And that's a fact - as of a month ago
But now that the worst is over
I can just take it back

Oh lovers they come, another call from
A phone booth somewhere in "Lovertown"
It isn't so bad those others I've had
It isn't as if I'm losing ground
I'm getting better when I
Annex myself from you
It ought be another
Country I'm moving to

[Chorus:]

I'd like to throw myself a
Million miles an hour
I'd like to feel before the
Feeling goes sour

[Chorus:]
So take it back - I never said I did
And that's a fact - as of a month ago
But now that the worst is over
I can just take it
But now that the worst is over
I can just take it
But now that the worst is over
I can just take it back
